Breadth Requirements – You are strongly encouraged to focus on preparatory course work (mathematics, science and technical work) for your desired major rather than completing the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). However, BCOE does accept completion of IGETC as satisfying the majority of breadth requirements. Additional breadth coursework may be required after enrollment at BCOE.

Prerequisites – Strong technical preparation is essential for success in the admissions process and, subsequently, in all coursework at BCOE. If you intend to transfer to an engineering major, you are expected to complete the equivalent of UCR coursework required in the first two years of the programs and apply for transfer starting your junior year. Visit ASSIST.org to see the prerequisites you must take for your intended major (and to make sure your classes will transfer).

Minimum GPA – Strive to surpass the 2.8 minimum GPA.
